    Few words, but really impactful. The prose is evocative, with a succint, poetic charm. The story itself was suspenseful throughout, and it had a few twists that caught me off-guard in a pleasant way. Overall, more or less everything I'd ask for in a microfiction. The all-caps felt a bit extra but that's a very minor nitpick.

    Just read it, its tiny but pretty nice. I went into it with nothing but the wolf from the book cover, I must say I had a very pleasant surprise. It fulfills all the requirements of a good microfic, I liked a lot. Even felt that sadness at the end by realising It is a microfic, so no more continuation...
    But now i'm HUNGRY, very HUNGRY.

    This is a solid short story with a bit of a unique voice. For being only 1600 words it does quite a lot, though the sort of madness is a bit unexplained, or how fast the transformation takes effect, but other than that this was a good short story worth the read!

    It is a well written short story about a human and a werewolf with an end one could wish for themself, just to fit into the world or to make their own body fit their mind. By the time you read this review you could already be reading the story
